No Big Deal

Elon Musk launched a rocket seven years ago and now it’s no longer needed, so it will be crashing into the moon, leaving a crater. If you have or haven’t seen the movie “Don’t Look Up”, you’ll know that this superstar of capitalism is looking for a place for he and his cronies to inhabit when our planet can no longer exist because of the damage of capitalism. The “rocket piece”, as it’s being called, is twelve meters long, the size of a school bus, and whizzing towards the moon at 5,600 miles per hour.

​Professor Jonathan McDowell of the Center for Astrophysics Harvard and Smithsonian (and we’ve all heard of Harvard, whose affiliated mention it within ten seconds of meeting) says, “It’ll be fine.”
